Svalbard pingo database

The data contains the list of pingo and pingo-like forms over Svalbard archipelago. Each pingo is assigned with following data: coordinates, absolute height of pingo baseline, height of the mound, diameter of the mound, morphology of the mound, presence or absence of craters and crater lakes, presen...

description The data contains the list of pingo and pingo-like forms over Svalbard archipelago. Each pingo is assigned with following data: coordinates, absolute height of pingo baseline, height of the mound, diameter of the mound, morphology of the mound, presence or absence of craters and crater lakes, presence or absence and chemical composition of springs/icings, chemical composition of springs/icings if applicable, geomorphological positioning, positioning relative to the local Holocene transgression limit, slope exposition if applicable, observed morphology dynamics, distance to the nearest glacier, presence or absence of vegetation cover, absolute or relative age of pingo formation where available, local geological strata and tectonic province, presence of confirmed or assumed fault line. The data allows to obtain statistics necessary for analizing pingos as phenomena of Svalbard. The Iidentification of pingos is based on Svalbard aerial survey high resolution images which are publicly available at Norwegian Polar Institute online Topo Svalbard DEM resource (https://toposvalbard.npolar.no, 2008-2012). High resolution satellite images covering the whole archipelago are furthermorealso available at the Zoom Earth online database (https://zoom.earth). Pingo positioning, morphology, vegetation cover, presence of craters and distance to glaciers were analyzed using Norwegian Polar Institute Topo Svalbard S0 Terrengmodel Svalbard DEM model (2014) with 2-5 m resolution and orthophoto base map (maximum cache scaling 1:625 and resolution 0.165). Absolute height measurement accuracy is in range of ±2 m. The presence of pingo springs was determined based on earlier reported data (Liestøl, 1977) with addition of pingos where icings are clearly visible on winter/spring Topo Svalbard and Zoom Earth 2018-2020 satellite images. Special information such as absolute age, drilling results, spring composition base on published data (Orvin, 1944; Liestøl, 1977; Yoshikawa and Harada, 1995, Matsuoka et. al, 2004; Hodson et. al, 2020; ...

Each pingo is assigned with following data: coordinates, absolute height of pingo baseline, height of the mound, diameter of the mound, morphology of the mound, presence or absence of craters and crater lakes, presence or absence and chemical composition of springs/icings, chemical composition of springs/icings if applicable, geomorphological positioning, positioning relative to the local Holocene transgression limit, slope exposition if applicable, observed morphology dynamics, distance to the nearest glacier, presence or absence of vegetation cover, absolute or relative age of pingo formation where available, local geological strata and tectonic province, presence of confirmed or assumed fault line. The data allows to obtain statistics necessary for analizing pingos as phenomena of Svalbard. The Iidentification of pingos is based on Svalbard aerial survey high resolution images which are publicly available at Norwegian Polar Institute online Topo Svalbard DEM resource (https://toposvalbard.npolar.no, 2008-2012). High resolution satellite images covering the whole archipelago are furthermorealso available at the Zoom Earth online database (https://zoom.earth). Pingo positioning, morphology, vegetation cover, presence of craters and distance to glaciers were analyzed using Norwegian Polar Institute Topo Svalbard S0 Terrengmodel Svalbard DEM model (2014) with 2-5 m resolution and orthophoto base map (maximum cache scaling 1:625 and resolution 0.165). Absolute height measurement accuracy is in range of ±2 m. The presence of pingo springs was determined based on earlier reported data (Liestøl, 1977) with addition of pingos where icings are clearly visible on winter/spring Topo Svalbard and Zoom Earth 2018-2020 satellite images. Special information such as absolute age, drilling results, spring composition base on published data (Orvin, 1944; Liestøl, 1977; Yoshikawa and Harada, 1995, Matsuoka et. al, 2004; Hodson et. al, 2020; ...
